Tessian

Tessian protects every business’s mission by securing the human layer 💫

We're building intelligent security that works for human beings as they are, not how security policies would like them to be. Using machine learning technology, Tessian automatically predicts and eliminates advanced threats on email caused by human error - like data exfiltration, accidental data loss, business email compromise and phishing attacks - with minimal disruption to employees' workflow. As a result, employees are empowered to do their best work, without security getting in their way.

Tessian has raised a $65m Series C led by renowned security investors, March Capital (Crowdstrike, Knowbe4), with follow-on from Sequoia, Accel, Balderton, Latitude & Schroder Adveq, to further our mission to secure the human layer.

Founded in 2013, Tessian is backed by world-class venture capital investors and has hubs in London, San Francisco, Boston, and Austin.

Sales at Tessian

Having found exceptional product-market fit for our category-defining Human Layer Security software platform, we’re in the midst of transitioning from 'start-up' to ‘scale-up’, and looking for Account Executives to capitalise on the huge demand for our product.

We’re building out our commercial presence in new markets and geographies and are looking for passionate entrepreneurs, builders and straight up hustlers to help us build something special. We’re looking for outstanding tech salespeople who have consistently hit target and thrive in taking full ownership of the sales cycle, from lead generation through to closing.

You’ll be an articulate presenter and a strategic planner but above all, disciplined, dynamic and goal-oriented. This opportunity will serve as an inflection point in your career, accelerating your development, responsibilities and achievements at a rapid pace.

You'll be given world class-leading support: our CMO and Head of Demand Generation are bringing focus to generating inbound pipeline as well as delivering curated industry events; all of our AEs are paired with an SDR to support with territory planning, outreach and pipeline generation and we have built out our support functions with Sales Enablement, Sales Engineering and Sales Ops to support through the sales process.

That said, we don’t pretend that it’ll be easy - joining a company and embarking on the scale-up phase is an amazing challenge, pushing well beyond the boundaries of natural growth cycles.

You’ll need to move quicker than feels comfortable, and be brilliant at continually re-prioritising what must get done to keep Tessian growing year over year at the pace of the fastest growing SaaS companies in history.
